“Rich Lady Splashed Mud on an Old Woman, Unaware She’s Her Husband’s Mother…”
Episode 1
My name is Vivian.
People call me "Madam V."
I dress like wealth, walk like success, and speak like a woman born with gold in her blood.
But they didn’t know—
I started from the gutters of pain, betrayal, and hunger.
What they see now is a woman shaped by scars, dressed in diamonds, and powered by pride.
But if only I had known that the woman I splashed dirty water on that rainy afternoon… was the same woman who gave life to my husband...
Maybe…
Just maybe…
I would’ve rolled down from that car myself and kissed her feet.
But life doesn’t always give warnings.
Let me take you back to how it all began.
It was the first Monday in March. The sky wore a gloomy face, and the rain poured like it had something against the world. I was late for a business pitch—a multi-million naira boutique expansion deal. My car splashed through the flooded street, and then—a loud scream.
I looked through the tinted window and saw her—an old woman, soaked from head to toe in muddy water, trying to gather the scattered bananas and oranges that had spilled from her basin.
She was kneeling in the middle of the road, trembling.
Her wrapper was soaked, her feet bare, and her face…
Her face was something I should have looked at closer.
But no—
Pride had eaten my soul.
I lowered the glass just slightly, scoffed, and shouted,
"Next time, stay in your gutter place, old woman!"
Then I laughed, the type of laugh that cuts.
I added,
"Your days are numbered! Even poverty is tired of your face!"
And with that, I rolled the glass back up, threw on my sunglasses, and asked my driver to move.

The old woman didn’t speak.
She just stood there, frozen, her eyes following my car like someone who had just seen her past return in a new body.
That night, something strange happened.
My husband came home unusually excited.
"Vivian!" he called.
"You won’t believe who I saw today!"
"I’m too tired for gist, darling," I replied, sipping my wine, legs crossed, already scrolling through Instagram, admiring a luxury necklace I wanted to order.
He smiled.
"I saw my mother."
My hand froze.
"What?" I asked slowly.
"My mother! After so many years. Remember I told you she disappeared when I was little? Everyone thought she died. Vivian, she’s alive! And guess what? She stays right here in this city… and sells fruits by the roadside near that old broken junction."
Suddenly, my throat dried.
My stomach twisted.
The wine turned bitter.
I turned to him, heart pounding, face pale.
"What… does she look like?" I asked, trying to act casual.
He smiled brightly.
"She’s aged, of course. Grey hair, tiny frame… her eyes still hold that spark. But…"
He paused.
"She told me something that shocked me."
I swallowed hard.
"What did she say?"
He looked at me for a long moment and said,
"She said a rich woman in a black SUV splashed her with dirty water today… laughed at her, and called her ‘gutter trash.’ She said she didn't get angry. She just watched the car drive off. But she told me something strange…"
I couldn’t breathe properly. I felt my hands shake.
He continued.
"She said, ‘That woman will kneel before me one day, without knowing who I am. She will cry not because I cursed her, but because life will teach her the kind of lesson that no money can erase.’"
